Dunne, who has been a terrific leader for City these past few years has had something of a shocker so far this season, to say the least.

The revelation courtesy of The Manchester Evening News that he has fluid on the knee following that abysmal defeat at Bolton may come as something of a blessing in disguise for Blues who reckon the big fella needs a couple of games out of the firing line in order to take a step back and get a breather.

He may well have thus far been symbolic of City’s defensive failings this campaign but we must never forget the amount of times that he has almost single handedly repelled the opposition time and again for the City cause.

So if the skipper is out for the Dutchmen’s visit, how should our back four line up?

Assuming Bluesy would give Micah Richards the armband, how do you think he will address the centre back situation in Dunne’s absence?

Certainly, Nedum Onouha, Javier Garrido and Michael Ball will all be hoping that they can get back into the Welshman’s plans.

The City squad for FC Twente:

Hart, Schmeichel, Zabaleta, Onuoha, Richards, Dunne, Ben Haim, Garrido, Ball, Wright-Phillips, Ireland, Kompany, Elano, Robinho, Jo, Benjani, Vassell, Fernandes, Hamann, Evans, Sturridge.
